EP | 733 - We've Never Shared | The Bumble Match & The Divorce That Led to a $40 Million Fitness Business (Part 1/2)

We wanted to do something a little different today. We've been running this podcast for 700 plus episodes and we've shared a lot of tactical stuff. Ads, offers, sales scripts, all of it. But we've never actually sat down and told the full story. Both of us. Together. How we got here, what it actually cost, and what we'd do differently. In Part 1, we'll mostly cover Erin's story, how we met, and the highlights up until 2019.

EP | 732 - You Don't Have a Client Problem. You Have a CEO Problem

Most coaches think the hard part is getting their first clients but the truth is that's actually where the real problems begin. In this episode, I'm going to walk you through exactly where one of our students was when she entered Legacy and more importantly what we had to shift to take her from early success to actually building a real, scalable business. If you're sitting at your first 5, 10, maybe 15 clients and you're starting to feel overwhelmed or you're wondering what the next move is, this episode is for you.

EP | 731 - What the Instagram & Facebook Algorithm Actually Wants in 2026, Part 2: Stealing What's Already Working

Here's the single biggest mistake I see coaches make with ads. It's not the targeting, the budget, or the offer. It's creating content in a vacuum. They sit down, think about what might work, write something, run it, and wonder why it's expensive. Meanwhile their competitors have already done all the testing. Their best ads have been running 90 days. The data is right there and almost nobody is looking at it. Today in Part 2 of this series, I'll explain exactly how you can analyze and iterate your ads based on what's working right now and if you've been wanting to get more advanced with your AI skills, this is a perfect way to do so.

EP | 730 - What the Instagram & Facebook Algorithm Actually Wants in 2026, Part 1: The New Rules of Content and Ads

You've heard the advice a thousand times. Post consistently. Show up every day. Create value. Be authentic. And if you're like most coaches I talk to, you've done all of that. And you're still sitting there wondering why the algorithm isn't rewarding you the way you expected. Here's what nobody's telling you: the algorithm changed. Fundamentally. And most coaches are still playing by 2022 rules in a 2026 game. Today I'm breaking down exactly what Instagram and Facebook actually want from you right now across both your organic content and your paid ads. And I'm going to show you why the coaches winning right now aren't necessarily more talented than you. They just have better intel.

EP | 729 - I Spent $55K to Learn This One Lesson About Asking for Help

A few weeks ago, I spent fifty-five thousand dollars trying to fix myself. Not on a business problem. Not on a marketing campaign. On me. On my mental and physical state. And honestly? I'll get into the details of what that experience was like in a minute — but right now I want to tell you the most important thing I came home with. And it wasn't anything the clinic gave me. It was a reminder of something I already knew — the most important skill you can develop as a business owner isn't your work ethic. It isn't your offer. It isn't your content strategy. It's the ability to figure shit out. And figuring shit out really just means one thing. Knowing when to ask for help. And actually doing it.

EP | 728 - How to Turn "Problem Clients" Into "Easy Clients"

I was listening to an IFCA coaching situation recently where a coach had a client who kept trying to quit. Not once… twice. And on the surface, it's easy to label that client as: Difficult, Non-compliant, Unmotivated, and most would label them a "problem client." And don't get me wrong. Those clients exist. But here's the question I always ask: "Is this actually a client problem… or a leadership problem?" We'll walk through the answer to this question in today's episode.

EP | 727 - You're Not Stuck. You're Just Wasting Time on the Wrong Thing

If you are working harder than ever right now and your business still feels like it is barely moving… There's a very good chance the problem is not your effort. It's that you are solving the wrong problem. And this is something I see all the time with coaches. They are not lazy. They are not passive. They are not sitting around doing nothing. They are doing a lot. But they are spending their time optimizing things that are not actually the constraint in the business. So today, I want to walk you through a really important concept that I think will help a lot of you simplify what you need to focus on next. Because if you can get this, you will stop wasting so much time on things that make you feel productive but do not actually grow the business.

EP | 726 - The 90-Day Rule That Builds 7 Figure Businesses

Most entrepreneurs don't fail because they lack strategy. They fail because they cannot regulate themselves long enough for strategy to work. They pivot too fast. They react too fast. They spiral too fast. And the truth is… Business does not reward intensity. It rewards steadiness. In the last episode I talked about the nervous system of a CEO and why regulation is the price of admission for leadership. Today I want to go deeper into what that actually looks like in practice. Because resilience and patience are not personality traits. They are trained behaviors. And if you can learn to build them, you dramatically increase your odds of building a business that actually lasts.
